Radiation Meter Readings

Automation, HomeStuff No Comments »

Black Cat Systems sells a number of radiation meters that will capture and measure all kinds of radiation (Alpha, Beta, Gama, X-Ray, etc.). I bought one of these several years ago and recently unearthed it from my Pile of Forgotten Electronic Projects and hooked it up to one of my computers. The software that comes with it allows for an ftp upload, so I set it all up and its now uploading its readings to the RadMeter page every five minutes or so. Now you too can see if I’m living under fallout or not :)

Resetting the Oil Change light on a 2007 Saturn VUE

HomeStuff No Comments »

My friendly oil change person taught me the trick to resetting my oil change light on my 2007 Saturn VUE:

  • 1. Turn the ignition on
  • 2. Press the gas pedal all the way down three times
  • 3. The Oil Change light and the Airbag light will alternately blink for about 15-20 seconds, then go out.
  • 4. Turn the car off.

    • When you turn the car back on, the Oil Change light will stop coming on.
